You understand there is no reason for the girls to compete because they can't win, right?

You understand that if he -- and he most likely will -- gets on the female US Olympic swim team, none of them will be able to get a gold medal, right?

You understand if he throws races, it's an insult to the women who are competing and to the woman who could've had his spot in the race and on the team, right?

You understand that this paves the way for female scholarships to go to males on female sports teams, right?

You understand all that, right?

Interesting interview with some of the protestors. They all say they are former Democrats who walked away from the party due to realizing that Democrats do not care about women’s rights. I agree with them.

Republicans recognize and acknowledge women.

Democrats recognize and acknowledge women ONLY if they are men [or want to have an abortion .. but that's another thread topic].

Here's a stunning video. Not for the guy commentating, but for the young lady interviewing the protesters supporting "Lia" Thomas. The protestors are unbelievable. Completely brainwashed.

At the very beginning and at about 10:17.

Not quite that simple.

First of all for what reason should a biological female be prohibited from competing with men, if they are talented enough to do so?

As far as trans females (biological men), it may come down to where they compete in men's sports, at least in collegiate sports. They will be widely accepted by team-mates while openly identifying as trans female.

In todays sports the focus is on the person’s skills, work ethic, and competitive spirit, not their sexual orientation, gender identity or expression.

There are even discussions going on (within college and youth sports) about changing the term "Mens Sports" to "Open Sports" to offer a more inclusive umbrella for trans females to compete with men.

That being said, for those that like to politicize the issue I am sure they will offer criticism regardless as to how the NCAA and the other collegiate sports associations handle the issue.

I stand by what I said. There is no reason at all to muddy the waters like this.

So that is it? Your being purely political and not offering a reason why a biological female should be prohibited from playing a boy/men's sport if they have the talent to do so? Do you actually watch or know anything about sports?

In South Dakota there was a young lady who played youth football from the age of 8. She made her Jr High team. Now with the states new law she can no longer play Football.

Over the years there have been many girls who played a HS sport with the boys. There are several cases were females played on men's teams in college and even a women who played in the Can-Am Professional Baseball League.

What's your objection?

How is to political for me as a women to want men to compete against men and women to compete against women? This has worked well for decades.

I do think that if there is a sport that only has a team for boys with no girls’ team such as football, they should allow girls to try out and play. There are not many sports like that though.

No, they don't.

The Republican Party platform isn't pro-choice.
